The Letter of St. Paul
to
The Romans
Chapter
5
¹Therefore, since we are justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, ² through whom we have obtained access to this grace in which we stand; and we boast in our hope of sharing the glory of God.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verses 1 to 2)
Oh God, my Father, I am proud of my faith in You and more of Your faith in me. My hope is You and in You. Amen. You are the beginning and end of my life. Amen. In You alone, I place my trust!
³ And not only that, but we also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, ⁴ and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, ⁵ and hope does not disappoint us, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verses 3 to 5)
Oh God, my Father, our sufferings are a joke when compared to Your sufferings. I thank You for changing our suffering into joy in the Holy Spirit. I pray that I think, breath, and live the Holy Spirit every second of my life Amen.
⁶ For while we were still weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 6)
Oh God my Father, Your timing is different than my timing, however, I still have faith in Yours, even if I cannot see your clock. I believe that when You deem as being the right time, I will have my daughter back or be able to see her, and even the issues rework will be settled Amen.
⁷ Indeed, rarely will anyone die for a righteous person though perhaps for a good person someone might actually dare to die.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 7)
Oh, God my Father as You know many people are dying because of their faith in You and blessed are such people who are imitating You both in their bodies and in their spirit Amen.
⁸ But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 8)
Oh brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ this is the greatest love. You died for our redemption even though as sinners we did not deserve to be redeemed. Amen.
⁹ Much more surely then, now that we have been justified by his blood, will we be saved through him from the wrath of God.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 9)
Oh God, my Father only You can answer this question, however, I have no doubt in how much You love me even though I am a sinner worthy of Your wrath Amen.
¹⁰ For if while we were enemies, we were reconciled to God through the death of his Son, much more surely, having been reconciled, will we be saved by his life. ¹¹ But more than that, we even boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verses 10 to 11)
Oh God, my Father I thank You for Your passion, for destroying the border created by original sin in order to obtain my redemption. I also would like to thank You for Your relationship with me. I thank You for accepting me as I really and truly am and for loving me Amen.
¹² Therefore, just as sin came into the world through one man, and death came through sin, and so death spread to all because all have sinned-¹³ sin was indeed in the world before the law, but sin is not reckoned when there is no law.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verses 12 to 13)
Oh God my Father even though the sin was in the world before the law, Your Holy Spirit existed even before the world was created. I pray that when reasoning we start from You and end with You Amen.
¹⁴ Yet death exercised dominion from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sins were not like the transgression of Adam, who is a type of the one who was to come.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 14)
Amen my brothers and sisters, however when God my Father sent His only Son in order to redeem us death lost its dominion over humanity because Jesus paid the price in order to remove that hold and claim over us Amen.
¹⁵ But the free gift is not like the trespass.For if the many died through the one man's trespass, much more surely have the grace of God and the free gift in the grace of the one man, Jesus Christ, abounded for the many.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 15)
Oh brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, today we have a serious decision to make, whether whom we are to follow if it is the carnal world of Adam or the world of eternal life in Jesus Christ Amen.
¹⁶ And the free gift is not like the effect of the one man's sin. For the judgement following one trespass brought condemnation, but the free gift following many trespasses brings justification.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 16)
Oh God, my Father indeed You are the free gift that claimed our salvation even though as humans we do not deserve it, however, the act of Adam brought sin on the world of which you had to shed your blood in order to redeem us Amen.
¹⁷ If because of the one man's trespass, death exercised dominion through that one much more surely will those receive the abundance of grace and the free gift of righteousness exercise dominion in life through the one man Jesus Christ.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 17)
Oh God, my Father, You chose to redeem flesh with flesh and sin and slavery with grace and freedom. You perfected the human form by becoming human Yourself so that as a human You could experience our joys and even our sorrows Amen. I thank You for doing so my God and Father Amen.
¹⁸ Therefore just as one man's trespass led to condemnation for all, so one man's act of righteousness leads to justification and life for all.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 18)
Oh God, my Father, I thank You for becoming human because when You did so, You made holy the human form and only then we could be united in both body and soul. Amen, I thank You because this move made it more possible for us to understand each other. We could never argue, that You cannot understand us because You were never human Amen. In this way, You can fully understand us Amen.
¹⁹ For just as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verse 19)
As in the case of humanity oh God my Father many were they who left a negative stain on humanity such as Hitler and others who committed crimes and atrocities against humanities. Likewise, we can either focus on the evil or wrongdoing of these people or focus on the good done by many others even during our times Amen.
²⁰ But law came in, with the result that the trespass multiplied; but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more, ²¹ so that, just as sin exercised dominion in death, so grace might also exercise dominion through justification leading to eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
(The Letter of St. Paul to the Romans Chapter 5 verses 20 to 21)
Oh God, my Father, I thank You for Your commandments and all the teachings found in the Bible, for they guide me in my daily life. Thank You for making me aware of what is good from what is sinful and bad, so that Your grace may abound over my sinful self Amen.
Oh God, my Father, I would like to end this meditation on the fifth chapter of St. Paul's letter to the Roman's with the following prayer:-
Oh brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ, today we have an important decision to make which consists of a commitment to either follow Jesus and His Word as in the Bible or to follow the ways of the world as portrayed by the media and other sinful and worldly sources. The decision is and will always be ours Amen.
Thank You Jesus.
